Silverado 1500 vs Ram 1500: Power and Capability

The 2019 Silverado 1500 gives you the choice among six engine options, including a few V6 engines, two V8 engines, and a turbo-diesel engine. Along with these engines, you’ll also be able to take advantage of a Drive Mode Selector that lets you customize your drive. Choose between six unique modes including Tour, Sport, Tow/Haul, Off-Road, Terrain, and Snow/Ice.

When equipped with the proper engine and other optional features, the Silverado 1500 can tow more than 12,000 pounds of trailer weight.

The 2019 Ram 1500 can also tow more than 12,000 pounds when properly equipped. However, this model only gives you three engine options—just half of the options the Silverado 1500 has to offer. You’ll also completely miss out on the Drive Mode Selector.

Silverado 1500 vs Ram 1500: Comfort and Space

Both the 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 and the 2019 Ram 1500 prioritize passenger comfort. In either model, you’ll have a wide variety of comfort features to choose from, including:

• Several available leather seating surfaces
• Heated front and rear outboard seats for cold winter days
• Ventilated front seats to keep you cool in the summer
• Dual-zone automatic climate control systems

When it comes to space, though, the Silverado 1500 goes above and beyond with more than 44 inches of front legroom and 43.4 inches of rear legroom to offer. The Ram 1500 also provides plenty of rear legroom, but at the expense of the front passengers who will only have 40.9 inches of legroom.

Silverado 1500 vs Ram 1500: Technology Features

On top of all the space you’ll have in the Silverado 1500, you’ll also have all the tech you need to get where you need to go with ease. This model sports a Chevrolet Infotainment 3 System that provides Bluetooth®, Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto™, and even a built-in 4G LTE Wi-Fi® hotspot.

The large touchscreen that comes with this system also enables you to take advantage of its turn-by-turn navigation capabilities and available HD Surround Vision camera. Get a 360-degree view of your vehicle’s surroundings to assist with parking, back-up, hitching the trailer, and more.

The 2019 Ram 1500 also sports a similar infotainment system with all kinds of connectivity features and a touchscreen display. However, this model does not offer a Wi-Fi® hotspot, so you’ll have to rely on your cellphone data plan while you’re traveling in this model.
